Touched a new 52-week high today, having rebounded impressively from August lows. Its Mar and Jun '12 quarters showed better earnings after a sub par Dec '11 marred its strong earnings track record. Due to report earnings on Nov 12th. Volume and volatility often increase near earnings news. It went through a deep consolidation, and yet it now faces a little resistance due to overhead supply up to its all-time high hit when last noted cautiously in the 5/10/11 mid-day report - "Getting extended from a sound base while on track for an 8th consecutive weekly gain. Rallying following a "breakaway gap" clearing a 5 month base on 5/05/11 after an analyst upgrade. Showed strong sales and earnings in the Sep and Dec '10 comparisons and it is due to report results for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 on Friday, May 13th. This Chinese Real Estate Internet portal firm's IPO was on 9/17/10 and its shares split 4:1 on 2/18/11."
